Thank you Arjen for pointing this out. After reading up on the man pages,
I also fixed the MONITOR line in upsmon.conf to pointing to [powerware] as
defined in ups.conf. So I redid this having stopped upsdrvctl and then
starting nut, now without the upsdrvctl problem but still with the lost
communications problem (see below). Do you have any leads what might cause
this or places to look/check?
# /etc/init.d/nut start
Starting Network UPS Tools: upsd upsmon.
Broadcast Message from nut at Bergvik
(somewhere) at 12:35 ...
Communications with UPS powerware at localhost lost
Broadcast Message from nut at Bergvik
(somewhere) at 12:35 ...
UPS powerware at localhost is unavailable
Thanks,
